Many vascular plants produce adhesive substances that may trap arthropods for their own protection, nutrition, and to engage in mutualistic relationships with predatory arthropods. While the role of stickiness in plant defense is well established, our understanding of the mechanisms and factors that determine the successful capture of arthropods by sticky plants and how we can utilize this knowledge to increase the sustainability of our agricultural practices is still limited. We review the literature on arthropod-trapping sticky plants and plant-based adhesive use in agriculture.
